Christmas 2000 in Iowa
It was very cold for almost the entire trip, temperatures ranged from -20F to +40F
(on the last 2 days only). Typically it was between 0F and 15F with about 15" of snow on the ground.
A nice break from the Florida winter.
Eric got "Poo-chi" from Grandma (just what he wanted!)
Elliot & Eric & Zach show off their booty. The puppets are from Aunt Linda, Uncle George, cousin Eli and cousin Ethan.
Cousin Zach shows off his new robot friend.
Uncle Ted really likes his gift from Monica!
(Hey girls, Ted is single!).
Coincidentally, Grandma and Uncle George got Cuckoo Clocks for Christmas too.
Uncle Tom is a Dolphin Phan! Uphortunately the Phins got phinished off early this year!
Uncle Bob shows that he really likes practical gifts.
(Bob needs a wife, he's too happy!).
